Here's a great one at the New International Bookshop
Paul Adams on FRANK HARDY
2pm Sunday 7th November
Paul will discuss his new book The Stranger from Melbourne: Frank Hardy - A
Literary Biography 1944 - 1975.
The blurb on the book says: "Frank Hardy is perhaps Australia's most famous
communist writer. He was variously a gambler and risk taker, a
working-class raconteur and bush liar and a political opportunist who
understood how to get the best from long odds. Paul Adams traces the
relationship between Hardy's writings, his political activism and the
historical events which shaped his literary works."
Paul Adams teaches working-class writing at Victoria University. He is a
community rights activist who has been "variously involved in unemployment
groups, housing organizations, the labour movement and environment groups."
